If you are a fan I would recommend listening to the Audiobook. It has tons of extra since Eddie is expanding/updating on the book as he's recording. It is a memoir so it's not always funny but I think it's always interesting.
If there was a new project to tackle with Izzard's charisma, wit, and persistence, it's writing more. Although I am glad to have learned his inspiring story, the content reads kind of sophomoric and boring because he lists a lot of information instead of diving deeper into self analysis. Also it could have used more humor.
That being said, I would love to read a book of witty essays by him in the future.
